Our next meeting is this week, Thursday, August 19 at 6:30 p.m. at the West Des Moines Public Library, 4000 Mills Civic Parkway, West Des Moines.

The topic of discussion for the night will be English Paper Piecing! Bring on the hexies!! (or diamonds or other fun shapes, of course, too) We have a special guest, Missie Carpenter, of TraditionalPrimitives.com to demonstrate her great technique of starch basting and a trunk show of unique work. AND we encourage all of you to dig through your trunks or take your best EPP work off the wall and bring it in for a special show and tell of all things English Paper Pieced. New or old, finished or un, we want to see what you've been working on and how you like to do it best. Oh and if you have an in-progress project of this sort, be sure to bring it and make a little progress while we visit!

Of course, please bring your other show and tell as well. Treats will be provided by Kathy Russi.
See you all soon!
